Hi,
I had my PET scan done Friday three months post treatment. My RO called and said it lite up at the right tonsil fossa but he didn't think that was anything. I have an appointment with him tomorrow to discuss.

I read my PET today and it said that I had a probable recurrance tumor on the base of my tongue at the hyoglessus muscle - SUV > 6. The CT did not show any density in that area but did show striking enhancement of the submandibular glands (which are close by).

Have others had a PET that read this way and turned out to be nothing? I was very surprised when I read my report - the report also said that it was a corrected report.

Thanks,
Angie
